Take Some Time Out of Your Busy Day to Enjoy the Bounty of What the Internet Has Wrought
The fine people at Alfred Image Works have given us this 5 minute video short about Johnny Express, the best delivery service in the galaxy! And it’s just delightful. And more than a little dark.
I have long been a champion of the Internet and all it can provide. This is the kind of short you might see in front of the new Pixar movie. And that regular people, not Hollywood types, are cranking this stuff out and sharing it online is just the greatest feeling in the world. This video short is well worth your time.
A Game Too Awesome to Exist
Angry Birds Pokemon. Oh Internet, sometimes I think I’m in love with you.
This beautiful mash-up was brought to us by Adrian Jensen, one of those creative Internet folks that fills our lives with joyful things. I would play this in a heartbeat.
Do You Want to Watch Some Batman?
If I was Bruce Timm, legendary creator of Batman: The Animated Series, I would also spend my free time making professional-grade Batman shorts.
This little video is making the rounds on the Internet as Timm’s contribution to Batman’s 75th anniversary. It’s an interesting little piece, even though it seems Batman’s best weapons are a rock and a tree limb. And do we really need to acknowledge Batman’s original design in modern adaptations? Do we really have to admit that there was a time when Batman thought big, floppy bat ears and small, purple gloves were a good idea? Can’t we just gloss over that?
How to Spend My Day Avoiding Walking Dead Spoilers
I don’t watch any TV at the moment it airs, instead DVRing until later when I can watch it on my own time with friends. As such, I find myself having to avoid all of my favorite geek news websites today, and Facebook, because any or all of them could reveal spoilers for last night’s episode of The Walking Dead. Who lives? Who dies? What happens at Terminus?! One of my favorite sites had spoilers for the fate of Shane on the front page for a week straight! So today is going to be a tough day!
Fortunately, I discovered this game 2048 last night, and it’s pretty neat!
You’ve got to swipe the numbers around the board, and any like numbers that bump into each other will combine and multiply. You’ve got to keep going until you can get some to multiply to the number ‘2048’. I have yet to succeed. But it’s a good way to spend my day avoiding Walking Dead spoilers!
Unless this is some kind of elaborate trap, and the spoilers will just start seeping through the game…and when I finally reach 2048, I’ll be rewarded with the spoilers of who died last night! No…no…they’re coming! They’re coming!!

Cats, The Internet and Batman
That’s just plan adorable fun. Cats will always be funny. And as everyone knows, talking cats are my Kryptonite. This little bit of daily comedy was brought to us by Robs Rants.
